Most of the baseball writers predict an- other failure but Terry Burke of the Star thinks they have a chance and through Tony Muralle, who has a restaurant in the Broadway district and is associated with bookmakers and gamblers, he bets $1. on them at 200 to 1. The opening ganie is a pitchers' battle, Whitpur, the Phila. delphia star twirler, is jealous of Larry Doyle, the Blues' rookie short- stop, because ot Pop Clark's pretty daughter Frances. He tries to in- tim'date Larry with a bean ball and when he throws a second one at Lar- ry's head Doyle knocks him down with a right to the chin. Larry is put out of the game. Later Whit. per hits a home run with a man on base but as Whitper is nearing the home plate, he drops - dead, shot through the heart. The Blues win and it" is generally believed | that Whitper was killed to allow them to win. Detective Kelly suspects Larry because he will not account for his time atter leaving the diamond. CHAPTER 11 It certainly lgoked bad for the Blues, with the score three to nothing. Larry was taken out. He was pret- ty sore about it and showed it. He went over to the water-cooler, he play- ed with the bats which the hat hoy had taken off the rack. He sven went over to the rack and lifted and hefted |- several bats before he finally settled down to watch the game. The Blues made one run at the end of the sixth. 'Higgins held the Butehers down-and the score was three-to one~when the Blues 'went up for thelr half of .the seventh, Hixgins was the frst man up and he singled cleanly over firgt, Dutch Schatz followed him and knock- ed out a two bagger which put /Hig- gins on third. Jole Brown was up next and crossed up the Butchers with ,one of his famous drag bunts- which brought Higgins home, '""That's baseball," 'op said to Lar- ry, who 'was sitting beside him. "I told Brown to bunt-and he does-as he is tcld. - Now there is a chance to tie the scare at least." Larry took it without a word, as he knew he deserved some riding from Pop. He till felt very bitter -about 4 Yon Have Child J : a 2 ~~ ASK 'YOUR DOCTOR THIS Ask Him Before Giving Your Child an Unknown Remedy: Practically any doctor you ask will warn: "Don't give your child unknown remedies without asking your doctor first" 'When it ¢omes tothe Nigel used children's 'remedy ~-- "milk o mag- nesia,"' the standard of the world is established, For over half a centu many doctors have said "PHILLIPS Milk of' Magnesia."

Horan was (p next and struck out; both runners holding their bases, Lar- ry stole a sidelong glance at Pop. He was beginning to think that maybe the old man's idea wasn't as good as it should have been, Schatz was on third and Brown on first and there was one out. Buck Hansen came strid- frguy to the plate swinging his old war clubs. Old Buck was a mighty poor hitter behind runners and that kind r~ ball player fsn't the kind of i1an you want up in a pinch. Pop knew this, but he decided to woo the fates and see it Hanson wouldn't deliver fur once. Buck struck at the first one and looked (he next two over carefully! They were both high and wide. Clark was trying to get him tu bite at the had ones. On the next one Buck took a tochold and lined a pretty single right through short. Schatz scamper- ed home. . Smith, thc Butchers' centre fleld, came over fast and scooped up the ball, Without waiting, he pegged the ball to third, and Brown, a notori- ously slow hase runner, was out by a hair, Buck had slowed up at first. but when he saw that they were making the play on Brown at third, some rea- son or otier prompted him to. think he could advance to second. Head dewn and legs pounding, he started out and tried 'a hook slide into the bag. When the dust cleared away, he found the grinning Dirikn was holding the ball on him and the ump had already wagged him out by a mile , I Bhd ; The stands went wild, The Blues viore up to their old tricks again.

Then, in the wildest part of an amazing game, Shorty Dugan, the utility man who had taken Larry's place, rificd a homer into the short left ficld stands, putting the Blues one ahead, The din was terrific. The game hag 11 the bitterness and heat of a mid-season pennant race. The next man up struck out and. the Butchers went: to bat for the niath. The success of thc game from the Chicago point of view depended on Dirkin. their chief slugger. Dirkin went to the bat first. If tnerc was ever a time when the But- chers needed a -home. rung it was at that moment. Every eye was on Dir kin as he pawed the dirt and swung his bat. Higgins let go. There was a sharp resounding smack and the ba!l sourec far out into the right field bleachers for a home run. All eyes 'sft Dirkin and followed the ball for a fraction of a minute, and then there was a great cry -as Dirkin, running wide at first, continued = mad drunken dash away from the diamond, away from first on down the field. - The two men called to him, the Blues players stared in amazement, and then Hansen in center flelc ray over and tackled Dirkin, bringing him to earth, For a|" N aL ly - smooth, glossy and sleek to thel moment the two men lay thei'e where! thy had fallen; then Hangen tried to got Dirkin<to- his feet.
